Ideas matter. They build businesses, drive innovation, inspire creativity, and often lead to intellectual property or other competitive advantages. In today’s digital age, technology and innovation are at the heart of many enterprises, whether you innovate yourself or acquire technology from others. Harnessing good ideas, whether they stem from your own innovation or others', must be done correctly to create value.
